<blockquote class"definition">'''Chakra Pathology''' is pathology that either [[Chakra Corruption|corrupts]] or [[Chakra Constriction]] energy flow through the body's various chakra points. Since chakra energies are critical for healthy functioning of the [[Physical Unit]], chakra pathology may lead to disability, degeneration, disease, and even death. </blockquote>

==Notes==

Chakra pathology occurs in one of two forms, either as a [[Chakra Constriction|constriction]] or [[Chakra Corruption|corruption]] of energy flow.

Chakra pathology may lead, during [[Connection Experiences]], to [[Connection Pathology]], like [[Ego Inflation]]

[[Connection Experiences]] > {{#ask:[[Is a::Connection Experience Type]]}}

==Notes==

Technically, an activation experience is a brief increase of [[CQ]] resulting from a temporary removal of [[Bodily Ego]] defences, either spontaneously, by engaging in [[Connection Practice]], or using [[Connection Supplements]]. An activation experience leads to a significant enhancement in one's sense of power and self-efficacy.

Michael Harner describes a unity experience, coupled with an [[Activation Experience]] of absorbing spiritual power in the form of the energies of the horse and bison, he had, while isolated alone in a cave.

"Then, as I was sitting there, an immense indescribable power rushed toward me from the same direction that the herds had come. But this time, there was no sound, no warning. It swept overwhelmingly through my body like a freight train. A surge of immense energy filled my body. I was astonished. The power had come! Then the animal was gone.

As it bounded soundlessly away through the darkness beyond the recesses of the cave, it called back to me: “I am XXX, XXX, XXX!” It said, “I am one and all. You and I are one.” Then there was only silence.

I felt indescribable awe and gratitude." <ref>Harner, Michael. Cave and Cosmos: Shamanic Encounters with Another Reality. Berkeley, California: North Atlantic Books, 2013.</ref>

==Notes==

'''Toxic and Violent'''

"Wrong environments are environments not aligned with the wishes and intent of your Highest Self. Since your Highest Self is an entity of light, life, love, compassion, empathy, and intelligence, generally, wrong environments are threatening and violent environments that do not allow the expression of the love, compassion, empathy, and intelligence of your own spiritual ego. Wrong environments are environments where you are subjected to emotional, psychological, spiritual, economic, or physical assault. Wrong environments are environments where you cannot totally relax because you are not completely safe. Wrong environments are environments where others manipulate and exploit you, or do not have your best interests at heart. Wrong environments are environments where your seven essential needs are not met.<ref>Sosteric, Mike. Lightning Path Workbook Three - Connection. Vol. 3. Lightning Path Workbook Series. St. Albert, Alberta: Lightning Path Press, 2017</ref>

Wrong environments are negative, toxic, violent, abusive, and chaotic environments. Wrong environments are environments where you are subjected to emotional, psychological, spiritual, or physical assault. Wrong environments are environments where you cannot totally relax because you are not completely safe. Wrong environments are environments where others manipulate and exploit you. Wrong environments make you sick, undermine your psychological and emotional integrity, and make connection extremely difficult.

[[Stage One]] ([[Intensification of Consciousness]]) - The creation of trillions of monads / [[First Birth]]

[[Stage Two]] ([[Expansion]] / [[Big Bang]]) - The big bang of physical creation. Monadic Consciousness enters into itself, at once birthing/causing, and simultaneously being born into, physical creation.

[[Stage Three]] (Coalescence) - The formation of solar systems and planets

[[Stage Four]] (Emergence)- The emergence of life on an individual planet.

[[Stage Five]] ([[Expansion]])- The evolution of a planet's [[Pinnacle Species]]

[[Stage Six]] - (Healing and Reconnection) - Healing from the trauma of expansion. Reconnection of [[Spiritual Ego]] and [[Bodily Ego]] on a global scale. Our current stage. [[Armageddon]] [[End Times]]

[[Stage Seven]] ([[Graduation]])- Graduation and Integration into interplanetary systems. ETA, begins 2040.

Spiritual Signature

<blockquote class="definition">A '''Spiritual Signature''' is a vibrational imprint that a [[Monad|monadic spark]] makes when it enters into the energy of the universe. This vibrational imprint is exactly like the tone of your voice, the features of your face, or the lines on your fingertips--i.e., it is idiosyncratic. </blockquote>

==Notes==

A simple thought experiment should make this clear.

[[Image:tuningfork.jpg|right|Tuning Fork|thumbnail|150px]]Imagine you have in your hand a tuning fork. If you strike this tuning fork it causes a vibration in the air surrounding. This vibration is the "hum" that we hear. If you were to strike a tuning fork and place it in clear water, you would be able to see the vibrational imprint of the tuning fork. This is exactly what happens when monadic consciousness touches energy. Like the vibrating tuning fork, it makes an imprint on physical matter that can be detected either by training your physical sense or, hopefully in the near future, by developing scientific instrumentation sensitive enough to detect the "subtle" impact of consciousness on energy and matter.

The tone of the spiritual signature is determined almost wholly by the [[Monadic Consciousness]] making the vibrational imprint.

The concept of spiritual signature is used in the context of "channeled" communication with the [[Fabric of Consciousness]]. When a disembodied monadic spark enters the energy field of an embodied consciousness (i.e., enters the physical space of the [[Physical Unit|physical unit]], it's presence creates a "vibration" in the existing energy field. This "vibration' can be detected by someone who has developed the sensitivity to detect such things. This can be useful in identifying the source of channeled communications.

In the cases of psychosis, where ego boundaries break down and uncontrolled access to the fabric of consciouses ensues, individuals may sense spiritual signatures and may report interference in the systems of their physical unit. This claim should be taken seriously and not discounted as delusional. Appropriate treatment requires, among other things, recognition of the reality of external "influence," the rebuilding of egoic boundaries, and education into the controlled access to the fabric of consciousness.

Negative Visualization

2022-12-29T16:45:44Z

185.191.171.1: Text replacement - "category:bookthree" to ""

'''Negative Visualization''' is the blocking out of ideas or images in the mind, as if pretending something doesn't exist necessary means it does not. Negative visualization is an oxymoron, a contradiction in terms, and it doesn't work. Drawing blanks in your brain is the exact opposite of visualization. Creation is always an active process. It is not visualization if you aren't visualizing something.

==Notes==

As an example, people who believe in negative visualization often believe that taking their mind away from the realities of war, inequality, poverty, suffering, etc. means that eventually all these things will go away because we are no longer "giving energy" to them.

Negative visualization is something that is often sold as a potentially fruitful avenue of "activity." People are told that pretending something does not exist will lead to its non existence. This is not how creation works. Creation is an engaged and active process, always. Those who are engaged in active intent and visualization easily "trump" those who passively sit back and "attract," or who actively sit back and close their minds.
